Текст песни
a cat communicates with an artichoke
Poor old joe, so you turned up in leon with very little luggage
heinz gets his nose chewed again
It s a twisted world so let s twist again, i tied two beds together with a strap from my bag
poor old joe
you got paint on your coat like an arrow point
I tied two beds together with a strap from my bag, chorus repeat three times with variations end on ooh
You might as well take out the landlady too, poor old joe
To pull the trigger on the world you re accustomed to am am7, there s a bass drum sound going round in my brain
Poor old joe, waiting breathlessly for the joe meek revival
And recorded it on two track tape, but it didn t stand any chance of survival, so you turned up in leon with very little luggage
My head was swimming in a bangkok joint, and recorded it on two track tape, i followed where it led as if pulled by a bow
But it didn t stand any chance of survival, so you turned up in leon with very little luggage, it s only a small thing to choose
It s only a small thing to choose, heinz gets his nose chewed again, just like joe meek s blues
the joe meek revival was happening again
it s only a small thing to choose
Em c am em c am d chorus just like joe meek s blues, em g it takes a leap of faith Blues, em c am em c am d chorus just like joe meek s blues
Sure we might have torn each other s hair out by the roots, you got paint on your coat like an arrow point, a cat communicates with an artichoke
heinz gets his nose chewed again
You know joe had an american rival, everyone was dressed in white
I tied two beds together with a strap from my bag, to really go for something right out of the blue
You got paint on your coat like an arrow point, there s a bass drum sound going round in my brain, c am d fired into the night deep and slow to where i ll never know
you went back dressed in black
Em g it takes a leap of faith, you went back dressed in black
My head was swimming in a bangkok joint, chorus repeat twice then f d f d back in london and it didn t even rain, the joe meek revival was happening again
Chorus repeat twice then f d f d back in london and it didn t even rain, waiting breathlessly for the joe meek revival Like, started talking in a foreign language
Chorus repeat three times with variations end on ooh, poor old joe Meek's, em c am em c am d chorus just like joe meek s blues
Just like joe meek s blues, but the clocks went forward and the revival got choked
Em c am em c am d chorus just like joe meek s blues, it takes a leap of faith
the joe meek revival was happening again
Pull the trigger on the world you re accustomed to you might as well save a bullet for me too a footnote in tomorrow s news, poor old joe Meek's, you got paint on your coat like an arrow point
My head was swimming in a bangkok joint, you went back dressed in black
It takes a leap of faith, sure we might have torn each other s hair out by the roots
Everyone was dressed in white, lord sutch delivers a homophobe joke
everyone was dressed in white
Em g it takes a leap of faith, em c am em c am d chorus just like joe meek s blues Graham, poor old joe
my head was swimming in a bangkok joint
everyone was dressed in white
you went back dressed in black
Waiting breathlessly for the joe meek revival, british summertime came like a cruel joke
To pull the trigger on the world you re accustomed to am am7, em c am em c am d chorus just like joe meek s blues Like, i followed where it led as if pulled by a bow
waiting breathlessly for the joe meek revival
My head was swimming in a bangkok joint, it s a twisted world so let s twist again Like, c am d fired into the night deep and slow to where i ll never know
I followed where it led as if pulled by a bow, but it didn t stand any chance of survival, and recorded it on two track tape
But the clocks went forward and the revival got choked, the joe meek revival was happening again
Chorus repeat three times with variations end on ooh, waiting breathlessly for the joe meek revival Graham, i tied two beds together with a strap from my bag
chorus repeat twice then f d f d back in london and it didn t even rain
to pull the trigger on the world you re accustomed to am am7
so you turned up in leon with very little luggage
a cat communicates with an artichoke
